A DIGITAL FRAMEWORK FOR GENERATING AND EVALUATING DIGITAL CIRCULAR TWINS

Abstract

The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction industry is crucial in promoting circular economy principles to mitigate resource scarcity and negative environmental impacts. Taking the lead in the global extraction of raw materials and making significant waste contributions, the sector incorporates circular economy assessments into building design decisions. This paper introduces a concept using visual programming language for End-of-Life algorithms linked to Building Information Modelling Data. The goal is to create a decision-support tool for the early design stage using common architectural software coupled to visual programming. The results display a computational solution for implementing relevant parameters through utilised software.
